The TriCeptor series of disposable reservoir breathers is a unique design which eliminates solid particulate, water and odour from air before it enters a hydraulic reservoir system

Parker UCC has extended its established range of hydraulic reservoir products with the introduction of the TriCeptor series of disposable reservoir breathers, a unique design which eliminates solid particulate, water and odour from air before it enters a hydraulic reservoir system.

The new TriCeptor breathers act in three distinct ways, eliminating solid particulate, water and exhaust gases from hydraulic tanks.

They incorporate the use of silica gel in the three step filtration process, and it is the incorporation of this water absorbing material which offers a visual check to engineers.

As it removes water from hydraulic fluid, the silica gel desiccant changes colour with advancing contamination, thus providing a clear indication of fluid condition.

This facility not only saves time but provides a safer working environment, removing as it does the need for sampling and closer manual inspection of contaminated fluid reservoirs.

In the second and third stages of the filtration process, activated carbon removes oil vapours and associated odours and filter pads eliminate 99 per cent of particulate matter down to 5.3 microns.

Designed originally for use in hydraulic reservoir systems, TriCeptor breathers can also be incorporated in a number of general industrial applications, including fuel storage tanks, aircraft ground support equipment, gearboxes and electrical enclosures.

TriCeptor breathers are available in multiple lengths and have a maximum operating pressure of 0.34 bar.
